Franks's Testimonial
 "As
I approached my 49th birthday, I suffered from Type
II diabetes and high blood pressure. The two minute
walk from my car to my desk at work left me so out
of breath I needed to rest before I could even answer
the phone. At 540 lbs. My doctors warned me that I
had to lose weight or die. I knew two things – it
is impossible to lose weight, and I needed to find
some way to do the impossible. I had a goal. Now I
needed a plan on how to achieve it.
"Having already tried just about every “diet” under
the sun, I knew that the problem with all of them is
that they end. And the weight always comes back. And
it usually brings friends! What I needed was a new
approach, a lifestyle change. After considering several
options, I chose the HMR™ program. The long-term maintenance
program that is an essential part of the HMR™ plan was
one reason. Dr Motto and his team were a much bigger
reason. They helped me believe that I could lose weight
and keep it off.
"In June 2004, eighteen months after starting
the HMR™ weight loss program I reached my goal weight
of 224 pounds and started on the maintenance program.
The support at the weekly meetings is tremendous. So
far I have been successful at maintaining my goal weight
for nearly six months. "
Jennifer's Testimonial
 “Losing weight (~90 lbs) has changed my life significantly.
I have lots of energy. I enjoy activities now that I
would have been to embarrassed to do before. My confidence
has grown tremendously, and, for the first time in many
years, I feel comfortable in my own skin.
“The highly structured weight loss phase of the
HMR™ Program helped me lose weight quickly and safely.
Seeing the results week-to-week motivated me to continue
working at the behaviors that lead to weight loss. While
losing weight, I learned about food and calories and
how exercise helps offset my higher calorie days.
“The sooner you stop waiting for that “magic
pill,” the sooner you can get started working on
behaviors that will actually lead to weight loss. The
naysayers told me that I’d gain it right back,
but, the truth is, weight management is an ongoing process,
and I am keeping my weight off. As they stress in the
HMR™ Program, I’ll have to continue my weight management
behaviors for the rest of my life."
